Super portrait, like the use of colour here.

really strong colours and nice bold brushwork.

Great use of leftovers, with nice contrasting. I always prefer an angles or sideways look in the posture, and this is spot on. Really well done Gudrun. Ps (a nice change, but I do like your dancers)

Your portraits are your signature work for me too Gudrun. This is great with a nicely caught expression.

I also love your quick and expressive portraits. Your minimalism really works.

Love this, Gudrun. Colours are super.

I know what you mean Gudrun. Every time I see a good portrait painted by someone on here I want to have a go. I love seeing both your portraits and dancers. You have a very unique and recognisable style. Great work once again!
